In the charity's own words
Lightbox aims to discover and present stories that are untold or overlooked. Over the last five years we have produced revivals of overlooked tales or devised shows from real 'untold' stories discovered during community outreach projects and workshops, demonstrating our commitment to creating inspiring, high quality and pertinent theatre that creates a sense of connection and alleviates isolation.
